Sometimes children have trouble distingishing if it's the short or long vowel sound in a word. Also, sometimes the words have marks above them. This tells if it's a short or long sound. If you don't know what these mean you can also sound out the word. As an example in "cat" the 'a' sounds shorter. This is a classic example for a short vowel sound.As another example, the 'o' in "foam" is a long vowel sound.
